Pierce, Stafford Will Aid Pro Baseball Committee Addition of two more men to the committee attempting . to bring Medford into the North west Class B baseball league to west Class B baseball league to day raised the hopes of local backers that the plan may yet come to reality.

MedfordTrlbune Poisoning of 'Scrap Fish' In Oregon Lakes Postponed Portland (U.R) The - catfish and perch in Ten Mile lakes and Devils lake on the Oregon coast todey had at least a temporary reprieve from a death sentence, The Oregon State Game Com mission Friday heard opponents and proponents of commission plans to give rotenone treatment to the lakes to kill out the so called scrap fish and make the lakes strictly trout and salmon waters. It was the second such hear ing and the results were just the same. Those opposed to kill ing out catfish, perch, bass and the other pan fishes were just as opposed as they were earlier. The proponents of the commis sion plan to treat the lakes still want the work done. Salmon Kill Feared The commission was to have heard a report yesterday by Dr. John Rayner, chief of the fish eries division, on the result of studies made at the lakes. One of the main objections expressed to rotenone treatment of Ten Mile lakes in northern Coos county was that the poison also would kill out all salmon and seriously affect at least one High School Scores FRIDAY BASKETBALL By United Press Franklin 59.

Gold Hill Grade Five Keeps Record Unmarred Gold Hill Gold Hill grade school Huskies were able to stay in the unbeaten column last week with 24 to 20 hoop win over Rogue River. The Huskies came to life in the second half and were not headed after that. They were paced by the shooting of James Eldred and rebounding aggres siveness of Clare Huntly. Eldred made six of his eight points in the third period. McCabe of Rogue River was second in scoring with seven Quarter scores were 4-all, ' 9 to 8 for Rogue River and 20 to 17 for Gold Hill. The Huskies were charged with 19 personal fouls and Rogue River with just eight. Under the partnership plan, which was used successfully to finance the Eugene club in the same league last year, signers would agree to assume from 1 to 10 per cent of any losses, and would share in the same way in any profits. Backers of the proposed club are of the opinion that advanced ticket sales, program and fence advertising, concession income and revenue from other sources would leave little if any deficit to be underwritten. However, it was brought out that under writing must be obtained in ad vance of accepting the league's invitation to assure paying off any obligations which might arise from the local 'operation. and possibly two cycles of migra tion. Proponents contended the runs could be promptly restored by artifical propagation. Those opposed to treating Devils lake on the northern Lincoln county coast said ma jority of fishermen living in the area preferred to fish for catfish, perch, bass, etc., and wanted the commission to stock the lake with these fish. No Ban Placed On Interschool Grade Rivalry The Oregon state department of education has placed no ban on interschool athletics among grade school teams, contrary to a rumor . circulated here last week. " The department this fall adopted and put into its stand ards a set of principals and policies governing administra tion of elementary school ath letics. While the. policies state that elimination tourneys shall not be held, they do not frown on interschool competition, as reported at the time. Principle and policies adopt ed were contained in a report of the statewide committe for study of elementary school ath letics, physical education, and health. Study by the committee was conducted over a period of a number of years under spon sorship of the Oregon County Superintendent's association. George Sirnio and Mary Bowen of the physical education and health section of the state department met last week with elementary school principals of the county to discuss the new policies with them.

Yellow Cab 55 Claim Against Car Firm Is Settled Chicago (U.R) A $3,374,000 federal government claim against the bankrupt Tucker automobile corporation for plant rental payments was settled af ter seven years Friday for $2, 275,000. The settlement was approved by Federal Judge Michael L. Igoe. It provides for the govern ment to keep, a check for $1,275, 000 put up as earnest money by Preston Tucker who was grant ed an option to purchase the plant owned by the government. The remaining $1,000,000 is to be paid when money is avail able. Tucker's firm occupied the plant which now is used by the Ford Aircraft Engine Division when he envisioned production of a rear engine dream car. The plant was erected by the War Plants Corp. In 1948 bankruptcy proceedings were sarted against Tucker to collect the rent. The settlement makes no pro vision for paying $2,000,000 in claims of dealers who had hoped to sell Tucker cars, to suppliers who were owed $1,000,000, or to stockholders, according to Norman Nachman, attorney for the bankruptcy trustees. Tucker Corp's. only asset now is a wholly owned subsidiary, Air-Cooled Motors, Syracuse, N. Y. The firm makes helicopters for the government. Liquidation of it is subject to government approval and Nachman said that is unlikely. The firm has total assets estimated at nearly $3, 000,000. Peddicord Had Eye Surgery Often Saratoga Springs, N.Y. (U.R) The late Henry Karlin spent thousands of dollars for eye op erations for Clarence Peddicord, of Vancouver, Wash., who ad mitted setting off 12 sticks of dynamite in a West Coast de partment store in an attempted extortion scheme. News of Peddicord's confes- sion came as a shock Friday to Mrs. John Krappman, a worker for many years at the Karlin estate here. Karlin died four years ago, and Mrs. Karlin cur rently is traveling in Europe. "Mr. Karlin paid for all the bills of Peddicord's operations," Mrs. Krappman said. "I think there were two or more such operations over a period of two years." She said Karlin learned of Peddicord's plight in a radio broadcast and immediately got in touch with him and with a New York surgeon. "The details aren't too clear now," she added, "but I think Mr. Karlin, who always was in terested in charities and philan thropies, wanted to help Peddi cord make a living so he could support his family. Peddicord had a number of operations," she said. "He would ax Parseghian New Coach . Of Wildcats Evanston, 111.

He succeeds Lou Saban, who was fired by Holcomb Mon day ' Parseghian's Miami teams won 39 games, lost six and tied -one while winning three Mid-America Conference championships. Holcomb, who took over as Northwestern athletic director last week, said Parseghian was given a three-year contract. Sal ary terms were not announced. McCarthy Calls For More Hearings To Expose Commies Washington (U.R) Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.), Saturday called on his old inves tigating subcommittee to "re sume efforts to expose the Com munists who are still in the gov ernment." McCarthy also renewed his at tack on two Senate subcommit tees that he said have sought to "discredit anti-Communist secur ity measures by means of ridi cule, unfair emphasis and down right misrepresentation." He made public a letter to Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark.) his successor as chairman of the Senate Investigating subcommit tee, charging that the only Sen ate committees under Democrat tic leadership "dealing with the Communist-in-government issue are directing their fire at those who are attempting to prevent Communist infiltration." McCarthy charged that the Senate Constitutional Rights Subcommittee and the Govern ment Employees Security sub committee "are deliberately por traying the security program as a ruthless, bungling Gestapo like operation, and this distorted picture is being passed on to the public with great gusto by the left-wing press." Both subcom mittees held hearings this fall. He said the McClellan sub committee, on which he is rank ing Republican, "h'as a clear duty to attempt to repair the damage done" by the other two subcommittees. Washington Marine Missing After Crash Tokyo (U.R) The Marine .Corps Saturday identified Lt. Frank D. McKillit of Walla Walla, Wash., as pilot for whom a relentless air-sea search has been carried out since his jet plane crashed into the sea Thurs day. And while the search contin ued, McKillit's brother, Marine Cpl. Merle R. McKillit, stood by at squadron operations, waiting hopefully for word that his lieu tenant brother was safe. Besides surface vessels sweep ing Sagami Bay south of Tokyo where McKillit's FJ2 Fury was believed to have crashed, three helicopters, four Douglas attack bombers and Navy training craft flew over the area.
